Advance Notice Requirement Delayed for Imports of Three Chemical Substances

Friday, November 20, 2015

Sandler, Travis & Rosenberg Trade Report

The Environmental Protection Agency has withdrawn a direct final significant new use rule that would have imposed import restrictions on three chemical substances that were the subject of a premanufacture notice beginning Dec. 1. These substances are isocyanate prepolymer (generic), methylene diisocyanate polymer with diols and triols (generic), and polymer of isophorone diisocyanate and amine-terminated propoxylatedpolyol (generic). The EPA now intends to publish proposed SNURs for these substances.
